INTRODUCTION. 


In  preparing  and  presenting  the  Second  Volume  of 
''Noted  Maine  Horses"  I  have  had  abundant  assurance  in 
the  repeated  calls  for  such  a  work  during  the  past  five 
3'ears,  that  I  am  meeting,  to  use  a  stereotyped  phrase,  a 
"long  felt  want."  How  well  the  following  pages  supply 
that  want,  1  leave  my  readers  to  judge.  I  have  made  no 
pretence  of  bringing  forward  all  valuable  information 
contained  in  the  first  volume,  but  have  only  brought  for- 
ward animals  with  records  of  2.30  or  better,  and  those 
there  recorded  who  have  since  become  distinguished  either 
by  their  own  performances,  or  as  sires  or  dams  of  per- 
formers. I  am  aware  that  criticism  awaits  me,  and  do 
not  pretend  there  are  no  errors,  but  all  such  will  be 
promptly  corrected  should  another  edition  be  called  for, 
notice  of  such  errors  having  been  received.  In  the  case 
of  the  Drew  Horse,  there  is  a  claim  made  that  he  was  got 
by  a  son  of  the  imported  horse  Buzzard ;  and  I  will  say 
that  some  of  the  circumstances  point  to  such  a  conclusion, 
but  so  long  as  there  is  no  definite  and  j>ositive  informa- 
tion on  the  subject,  I  prefer  not  to  deal  in  possibilities, 
but  give  the  pedigree  the  same  as  formerly.  In  two  or 
three  instances  errors  have  crept  in,  for  instance,  Dora 
M.,  page  80,  is  16  hands  high,  and  the  types  made  me  say 
15  hands.  Paystreak  was  foaled  in  1876,  although  my 
first  information  gave  his  age  as  foaled  in  1878.  After  this 


vii  NOTED  MAINE  HORSES. 

was  printed  we  learned  that  he  was  foaled  in  1876.  These, 
however,  are  minor  errors,  and  if  there  are  none  discov- 
ered of  a  more  serious  nature  I  shall  be  well  pleased.  I 
have  made  no  attempt  to  follow  all  the  changes  in  owner- 
ship;  as  fall  a  description  as  practicable,  with  age  and 
name  of  breeder,  and  the  names  of  owners  sufficient  to 
properly  identify  the  animal  in  question,  I  have  consid- 
ered sufficient,  and  space  is  too  valuable  to  be  used  up 
with  useless  matter.  Some  of  the  animals  have  lowered 
their  records  since  the  forms  giving  their  pedigrees  went 
to  press;  for  instance,  Cushnoc,  |)age  76,  had  no  record 
when  his  pedigree  was  printed,  while  at  the  Maine  State 
Fair  of  1886,  at  Lewiston,  Sept.  14th,  he  won  a  heat  in  the 
race  of  Green  Horses,  with  a  record  of  2.34^.  I  have 
used  others,  however,  as  well  as  I  have  myself,  for  in  the 
case  of  my  own  filly  Louviska,  page  159  ;  she  had  no  rec- 
ord when  her  pedigree  was  printed,  but  Sept.  30th,  at  the 
Oxford  County  Fair,  I  gave  her  a  three-year-old  record 
of2.51|.  So  my  friends  will  see  that  no  partiality  has 
been  used.  I  believe  the  Maine  2.30  list  to  be  very  nearly 
perfect,  much  more  so  than  any  previous  one  ever  pub- 
lished. I  regret  that  I  have  been  unable  to  learn  the  full 
pedigree  and  breeder  of  the  black  mare  Peaceful.  2.26. 
She  is  generally  credited  to  Gen.  Knox,  but  I  am  no  ways 
certain  that  such  is  her  breeding.  The  black  mare  Black 
Bess,  which  made  a  record  of  2.30  in  1885,  is  said  to  be 
by  St.  Elmo,  son  of  Gen.  Knox.  I  have  corresponded  with 
parties  living  in  the  vicinity  where  St.  Elmo  was  owned, 
even  including  his  owner,  and  have  been  unable  to  learn 
that  there  was  such  a  mare.  The  bay  gelding  John  Mor_ 
rill,  2.29,  by  Winthrop  Morrill,  I  have  been  informed  was 
foaled  in  New  Hampshire,  his  dam  having  been  brought 
to  Maine  to  be  bred.  I  have  also  been  told  that  he  was 
bred  in  Maine  and  taken  to  New  Hampshire  as  a  yearling 
or  two  year  old.  If  any  one  can  tell  me  the  facls  of  the 
case  I  shall  feel  greatly  obliged.     It  is  said  that   the  gray 


INTRODUCTION.  viii 

pacing  gelding  Comet,  record  2.22,  was  bred  in  Maine, and 
got  by  Dirigo,  but  I  have  no  certain  knowledge  that  such 
is  the  fact.  The  black  mare  Kitty  Y.,  reeord  2.81^,  is 
said  to  be  by  Royal  Knox,  and  bred  in  Maine,  but  I  have 
been  unable  to  trace  her  fully.  Alpha,  2.291  is  claimed  to 
be  by  Whalebone  Knox,  but  I  have  only  lately  learned  the 
fact  and  have  not  had  time  to  investigate  the  matter  fully. 
In  the  case  of  the  brown  horse  Transcendent,  since  his 
pedigree  was  put  in  type  I  have  learned  that  his  dam  is  by 
Dirigo.  Old  Abe,  the  sire  of  Aroostook  Boy,  we  learn 
was  not  by  the  Old  Drew  Hoise,  but  by  a  son.  Should 
another  edition  of  this  work  be  called  for,  all  errors  and 
omissions  will  be  corrected  us  far  as  we  are  able  to  correct 
them. 

Since  the  pedigree  of  Dirigo  was  printed  we  have 
learned  that  he  was  foaled  in  185-lr,  the  property  of  John 
Hagen,  Prospect,  Me.,  and  first  called  Hiram.  In  1857, 
when  three  years  old  he  was  sold  to  Andrew  Mudgett  of 
Belfast,  Me.,  and  named  Geo.  B.  McClellan,  then  sold  to 
Horace  McKenney  of  Monroe,  and  name  changed  to  Diri- 
go. McKenny  sold  him  to  Capt.  Sanford  of  Bangor,  he 
to  David  Quimby  of  Corinna,  and  he  to  Judson  Higgins 
of  Palmyra. 

In  conclusion  we  must  express  our  indebtedness  to 
Wallace  and  Chester,  whose  indispensable  works  have 
been  a  great  convenience  to  us  in  looking  up  the  standard 
numbers  and  records  of  horses.  And  to  all  our  friends 
who  have  aided  us  in  the  compilation  of  this  work,  we 
return  our  sincere  and  hearty  thanks  for  their  co-operation 
and  generous  words  of  encouragement.

HEADS  OF  FAMILIES. 


BRANDYWINES  AND  OTHER  CANADIANS. 


In  the  second  volume  of  Wallace's  Trotting  Register, 
published  in  1874,  the  author,  in  speaking  of  that  section 
of  Canada,  from  whence  came  St.  Lawrence,  Columbus, 
and  many  other  noted  sires,  uses  the  following  language: 
''There  is  no  little  interest  attaching  to  that  region,  and  if 
ever  sufficient  leisure  is  aflforded,  I  shall  seek  to  explore 
it."  Leisure  has  never  been  found,  and  the  mysteries  of 
that  Utopian  country  still  remain  unsolved. 

Maine,  as  a  breeding  State,  is  largely  indebted  to 
Canada,  as  several  animals,  whose  performances  have  en- 
titled them  to  an  honorable  place  in  the  2.30  list,  have  de- 
scended from  Canadian  sires. 

Perhaps  the  most  prominent  sire  brought  into  the  State 
from  that  region,  and  the  only  one  which,  from  the  num- 
ber and  quality  of  his  descendants,  is  entitled  to  the  dis- 
tinction of  being  the  founder  of  a  family  is  Brandywine. 

Brandywine. — A  dark  bay  stallion  with  black  points, 
about  15i  hands  high.  He  was  brought  to  Maine  in  1853, 
by  Aaron  Cobb,  of  Hebron,  who  owned  him  until  he 
(Brandywine)  died  a  year  or  two  afterwards. 


10  NOTED  MAINE  HORSES. 

He  was  known  while  he  lived,  and  is  now  designated  as 
Cobb's  Brandy  wine.  He  had  the  appearance  of  being  a 
well-bred  horse,  liad  fine  trotting  action,  and  was  fast. 
He  came  from  that  mysterious  region  'Hhirty  or  forty 
miles  below  Montreal,"  and  his  excellence  as  a  sire,  his 
great  speed,  and  his  early  death,  led  to  the  importation 
of  two  of  his  sons,  as  follows : 

Young  Brandywine. — Mahogany  bay  stallion,  14 
hands  high,  and  weighed  about  800  pounds.  He  was 
bought  in  the  city  of  Montreal  in  Feb.  1856,  and  brought 
to  Maine  by  Henry  A.  Young,  of  Hartford.  He  was  an 
exceedingly  stylish  little  horse,  with  fine  trotting  action, 
and  considerable  speed,  although  from  his  diminutive 
size,  he  was  not  regarded  as  a  first  class  sire.  Among  his 
get  there  appear  in  the  2.30  list,  the  following: 
Gray  Bill  g  g  by  Young  Brandywine. 

Dam  by  State  of  Maine.    2.30. 
Careless  Boy  b  g  by  Young  Brandywine. 

Dam  of  Morgan  descent.     2.28. 

Besides  the  above  he  got  Gladiator,  a  bay  gelding,  pos- 
sessing speed  equal  to  either  of  the  above,  but  he  went 
wrong,  after  scoring  a  record  in  the  thirties. 

The  descendants  of  Young  Brandywine  are  noted  for 
iron  constitutions,  are  almost  universally  sound  and  free 
from  blemishes,  and  although  like  their  sire,  generally  of 
diminutive  size,  are  a  class  of  horses  that  possess  any 
amount  of  business  qualities.  Among  his  descendants  is 
a  grandson  owned  by  L.  L.  Lorillard,  of  New  York  City. 
He  is  a  dark  brown  gelding  and  is  said  to  be  a  very 
speedy  roadster. 

Keene's  Brandywine. — This  son  of  Cobb's  Brandy- 
wine was  brought  to  Maine  from  Canada  in  1858,  by 
William  Keene,  of  Mechanic  Falls.  He  was  a  black  stal- 
lion and  was  a  trotter  himself  and  a  sire  of  trotters.  The 
only  one  of  his  get  in  the  2.30  list  is 


NOTED  MAINE  HORSES.  n 

Ned  Forrest,  blk  g  by  Keene's  Brandywine,  record,  2.28^. 

Among  the  other  descendants  of  Cobb's  Brandywine  in 
the  2.30  list  we  find  the  following: 
Arthur,  b  g  by  Lexington, 

son  of  Brandywine,  record,  2.28^. 
Belle  Smith  ch  m  by  the  Bearce  Horse,  he  by  the  Horner 

Horse,  by  Brandywine,  record  2.29. 

This  list  of  five  embraces  all  the  descendants  of  Brandy- 
wine which  have  records  of  2.30  or  better.  Among  the 
others  are  many  fine  animals  whose  names  have  not  been 
mentioned.  Perhaps  the  most  prominent  is  the  stallion 
known  as  Fowler's  Brandy. 

Fowler's  Brandy. — Dark  bay,  with  black  points, 
foaled  in  1855  and  bred  in  Hebron,  Me.,  got  by  Cobb's 
Brandywine.  Fowler's  Brandy  was  the  sire  of  several 
noted  animals,  among  them  Lady  Damon,  out  of  a  mare 
by  the  Hunton  Horse,  son  of  Bush  Messenger.  Lady 
Damon  was  a  brown  mare,  foaled  in  1863,  bred  by  John 
Damon,  Buckfield,  Me.,  and  was  very  fast.  The  writer 
has  seen  her  trot  several  fast  races  on  the  ice  while  owned 
in  this  State.  She  was  sold  in  1871,  and  finally  passed 
into  the  hands  of  Mr.  Robert  Bonner,  of  New  York  City, 
and  was  bred  to  his  horse,  Edward  Everett.  In  May, 
1874,  she  foaled  the  ch  g  Decoration,  and  in  1875,  the  bay 
colt  Ellsworth.  Soon  after  giving  birth  to  Ellsworth, 
Lady  Damon  died,  and  he  was  brought  up  on  a  bottle. 

The  brown  stallion  Brandywine,  owned  for  several 
years  by  the  Rev.  W.  H.  H.  Murray,  of  Boston,  and  a 
noted  winner  of  prizes  and  premiums  at  Fairs,  was  a  son 
of  Fowler's  Brandy.  Murray's  Brandywine  was  rated  as 
capable  of  trotting  in  2.25  or  better. 

Crawford  Horse. — The  Crawford  Horse,  by  virtue  of 
having  three  descendants  in  the  2.30  list,  is  entitled  to  a 
prominent  place  in  this  article.  He  was  a  chestnut  horse 
and  was  brought  to  Maine  from  Canada  by  Mr.  Crawford, 


12  NOTED  MAINE  HORSES. 

of  Skowhegau.    Of  his  descendants,  the  following  have 

honorable  positions  in  the  2.30  list.

Whirlwind  was  a  bay  stallion   with   black  mane  and 
tail,  and  could  both  pace  and  trot  fast.    He  was  brought 
to  Me.,  from   Canada  in    1852,  by   G.   A.   Hastings,   of 
Bethel.    He  is  known  as  the  sire  of 
Bay  Whalebone  b  g  record  2.26^. 

Among  the  other  Canadians  which  have  left  valuable 
stock  in  the  State  is  the  gray  stallion  Indian  Chief.  This 
horse  was  brought  to  Maine  by  S.  L.  Gale  of  Augusta,  in 
1831,  and  all  that  is  known  of  his  breeding  is  contained  in 
his  advertisement  of  that  year,  of  which  the  following  is 
a  copy : 

INDIAN  CHIEF. 

Is  a  horse  of  more  power  and  speed  than  any  other  in  the  New 
England  States.  He  was  raised  and  sold  three  years  since  by  Van- 
tassel,  a  chiet  of  the  Upper  Canada  tribe,  to  a  company  in  the 
County  of  Columbia,  State  of  New  York,  where  he  has  been  match- 
ed against  time  and  won  a  number  of  large  bets.  He  has  been  let 
to  mares  and  left  the  most  powerful  colts  ever  known  fj'om  any 
other  horse  in  that  section.  The  subscriber  was  induced  to  pur- 
chase him  for  the  improvement  of  the  stock  in  Maine,  and  now 
offers  the  use  of  him  at  the  low  price  of  six  dollars  for  the  season. 
The  public  are  requested  to  call  at  the  stable  of  the  subscriber  and 
examine  this  uncommon  animal,  where  also  will  stand  the  well 
known  horse  DUROC.    Terms  as  usual— $6  season — $5  single  service

DREW  HORSE,  114. 


Among  the  noted  horses  of  the  past,  who  by  their  ser- 
vices in  the  stud,  have  contributed  their  share  towards 
placing  the  State  of  Maine  in  the  front  ranks  as  a  horse- 
breeding  State,  the  Old  Drew  Horse  occupies  a  prominent 
position.  And,  as  a  tribute  to  his  memory,  I  deem  it  fit- 
ting that  he  should  receive  this  slight  recognition  of  his 
valuable  services  in  this  direction.  He  was  a  dark  brown- 
bay  stallion,  with  black  points,  15|  hands  high,  and 
weighed,  in  good  condition,  about  1000  pounds.  He  was 
of  genteel  form  and  fine  style  and  action ;  but,  like  all  our 
older  horses,  was  untrained  to  trot.  His  appearance  has 
been  described  as  follows,  by  one  who  saw  him  shortly 
before  his  death:  ''Shoulders  extremely  high,  broad  and 
deep ;  neck  light  at  the  head,  well  arched  and  deep  at  the 
body ;  face  a  little  rounding,  eyes  not  very  prominent, 
ears  good  length  and  well  cut ;  body  small,  loins  a  trifle 
arched,  hips  very  long  and  beautifully  turned;  limbs  large, 
pasterns  long,  feet  high,  black  and  nice ;  mane  spare,  tail 
in  waves,  and  hair  short  and  fine  all  over  his  body." 

He  was  foaled  in  May,  1842,  bred  by  Hiram  Drew,  then 
of  Exeter,  Me.,  and  dropped  on  his  father's  farm,  where 
he  then  lived.  His  sire  was  a  three-year-old  bay  colt,  16 
hands  high,  said  to  be  thoroughbred.  Said  colt  was  brought 
from  New  Brunswick  to  Maine,  by  A.  G.  Hunt,  Esq., 
then  of  Exeter.  His  dam  was  said  to  have  been  brought 
from  England,  in  foal  by  a  thoroughbred  running-horse, 
and  this  colt  being  the  produce.  At  Exeter,  Mr.  Hunt 
turned  him  into  his  pasture,   which  joined  Mr.   Drew's, 


14  NOTED  MAINE  HORSES. 

from  which  he  was  taken  several  times.  Here,  in  Mr. 
Drew's  pasture,  he  sired  the  colt  afterward  known  as  the 
Drew  Horse,  which  is  probably  the  only  colt  he  ever  got, 
as  Mr.  Hunt  had  him  castrated  shortly  after  and  sold  him. 

The  dam  of  the  Drew  Horse  was  a  bay  mare,  about 
15h  hands  high,  foaled  about  the  year  1836,  bred  by  Mark 
Pease,  of  Jackson,  Me.,  got  by  a  horse  called  Sir  Henry, 
he  by  a  son  of  American  Eclipse,  taken  from  Connecticut 
to  Maine  by  a  Dr.  Brewster,  now  dead.  In  1843,  the  mare 
was  taken  to  Massachusetts,  and  sold  to  the  late  Gen. 
F.  W.  Lauder;  she  was  first  known  as  Grace  Darling,  and 
afterward  as  Boston  Girl,  under  which  name  she  was  said 
to  have  obtained  a  record  of  2.37.  After  several  transfers, 
she  was  sent  up  into  Vermont,  on  a  breeding  farm,  where 
she  died  without  produce.  The  grandam  of  the  Drew 
Horse  was  Lady  Jane,  by  WintUrop  Messenger. 

Ac  I  have  before  intimated,  the  Drew  Horse,  «>r,  as  he 
is  now  universally  designated,  ^^  Old  Drew, '^  was  untrained 
to  trot;  his  reputation  having  been  all  earned  in  the  stud. 
Of  his  immediate  descendants,  only  two  appear  in  the  2.30 
list,  as  follows: 

Gen.  McClellan 2.26 

Dirigo 2.29 

Gen.  McClellan  afterward  obtained  quite  a  rej)utation 
on  the  turf.  Among  his  performances  he  beat  Feai-naught, 
a  race  to  wagons,  in  straight  heats,  over  the  old  Riverside 
Park,  Boston,  in  1865.  In  1866  he  won  a  double-team  race 
with  Dashaway,  beating  Ethan  Allen  and  Hono^t  Allen. 
He  was  subsequently  purchased  and  taken  to  California 
by  M.  J.  Lewis,  Esq.  Here  he  won  a  race  at  Sacramento, 
after  which  time  he  was  in  the  stud  at  San  Francisco, 
Stockton,  Oakland,  and  other  places  in  that  State.  None 
of  his  get  are  in  the  2.30  list.    He  is  now  dead. 

Dirigo  is  said  to  resemble  his  sire  more  nearly  in  style, 
color,  etc.,  than  any  son  of  Old  Drew.  At  the  time  he 
made  his  record  of  2.29,  in  a  race  at  Belfast,  Me.,  lie  was 


NOTED  MAINE  HORSES.  15 

known  as  Geo.  B.  McClellan.  He  never  afterward  start- 
ed in  a  race ;  but  was  retired  for  service  in  the  stud.  Here 
he  has  been  a  success,  as  the  following  are  to  his  credit  in 
the  2.80  list. 

Little  Fred 2.261 

John  Virgin 2.29 

Bully  Brooks 2.28 

Camors,  b  g 2.25^ 

Besides  the  above,  he  is  sire  of  Black  Walnut,  2.30^ ; 
Hard  Road,  2.33;  and  many  other  fast  and  stylish  horses, 
with  and  without  records. 

Among  the  other  prominent  sons  of  Old  Drew,  may  be 
mentioned,  Hiram  Drew,  record  2.31^;  Winthrop,  now 
standing  for  semce  in  California,  John  Bright,  Ned 
Davis,  Independence,  Garibaldi,  Bachelder  Horse,  and 
many  others  too  numerous  to  mention.  Hiram  Drew  (not 
tt>  be  confounded  with  his  sire  the  Drew  Horse) ,  achieved 
considerable  reputation  as  a  sire.  Among  other  good  ones, 
he  got  Red  Jacket,  2.31 ;  and  Lady  Bach,  the  dam  of  Beau- 
sire,  son  of  Rysdyk's  Hambletonian.  This  mare  is  better 
known  in  Maine  as  the  Seavey  Mare,  and  is  famous  as  a 
broixl-mare,  never  dropping  any  but  good  ones.  Her 
daughter,  Echo,  by  Gen.  Knox,  at  six  years  old,  showed 
a  trial  in  2.26,  she  is  also  the  dam  of  Gen.  Sherman,  by 
Gen.  Knox,  and  of  Violet  and  Pequawket,  by  Gideon  all 
of  which  could  trot  in  the  twenties.  It  will  be  remembered 
that  Beausire  sold  at  the  great  Kellogg  sale,  in  April  1878,

Stella  produced  the  fine  horse  Robert  R.  Morris,  by  Inde- 
pendent, son  of  Hambletonian.  Among  the  other  daugh- 
ers  of  the  Drew  Horse,  noted  as  brood-mares  may  be 
found  Mary  Drew,  owned  in  Brooklyn,  and  bred  to  Peace- 
maker. Dot,  owned  in  Brooklyn,  and  bred  to  Norwood, 
Gipsey  Queen,  &c.  In  the  next  generation  we  find  Joe 
Hooker,  Gen.  Burnside,  Penobscot  Chief,  Gen.  Lyon,  Von 
Moltke,  Prince  Hal,  Aroostook  Boy,  which  have  upheld 
the  family  rejmtation  both  as  aires  and  trotters.  Among 
the  mares  and  geldings  with  records,  are  Contraband, 
Eastern  Queen,  Lady  Warren,  Gentle  Annie,  Forest  Girl, 
Bayard,  Detective,  Georgie  B.,  Cloudman,  Johnny  Schmo- 
ker.  Deceitful,  Maine  Girl  and  many  others.  The  Drew 
Horse  lived  to  be  twenty-four  years  old,  when  he  was 
found  in  his  stall  one  morning,  with  his  leg  broken,  and 
had  to  be  destroyed ;  and  then  passed  away  one  of  the 
most  remarkable  sires,  considering  his  opportunities,  tliat 
ever  stood  in  Maine.

EATON  HORSE,  122. 


The  ''Eaton  Horse"  w^s  a  sorrel  stallion  with  mane 
and  tail  the  same  color,  a  horse  of  immense  size  and  sub- 
stance, standing  16i  hands  high,  and  weighing  in  good 
flesh  1450  pounds.  He  was  foaled  in  1842,  and  hence  the 
same  age  as  the  Drew  horse,  and  one  year  older  than  Ris- 
ing Sun.  He  was  bred  by  Thomas  Pelton,  of  Anson, 
Me.,  near  Madison  Bridge,  got  by  the  Avery  horse,  and 
his  dam,  the  Pelton  mare,  (so  called),  by  Winthrop  Mes- 
senger. 

Pelton  sold  him  when  two  years  old  to  E.  D.  Robinnon, 
of  Wilton,  and  he  to  Eliab  L.  Eaton,  who  owned  him 
several  years  and  from  whom  he  took  his  name.  Eaton 
sold  him  in  1854,  to  William  Beals,  of  Winthrop,  who 
kept  him  for  three  years,  and  then  sold  him  to  Fanning 
&  Allen,  of  Nashville,  Tenn.,  to  which  place  he  was 
taken  in  April,  1857.  Up  to  March,  1878,  nothing  was 
known  in  Maine,  concerning  the  subsequent  history  of 
the  Eaton  Horse,  but  in  Wallace's  Monthly  for  the  above 
date,  Mr.  A.  J.  McKimmin,  of  Nashville,  says  that  *'the 
Eaton  Horse  was  kept  in  Nashville  but  one  season,  where 
he  was  not  appreciated,  and  he  was  taken  from  thence  of 
Hopkinsville,  Ky."  He  further  says  that  ''he  left  several 
good  horses  in  Nashville  two  or  three  of  which  made  trot- 
ters." 

The  name  of  the  Eaton  Horse  appears  but  once  as  a  sire 
in   the  2.30  list,  as  follows:

Among  his  descendants  are  two  more  in  the  2.30  list 
which  trace  in  the  direct  male  line  to  the  Eaton  Horse.

Among  his  entire  sons  are  Shepherd  F.  Knapp,  Beals 
Horse,  Mount  Vernon,  taken  to  Philadelphia,  Kennebec 
Messenger,  Sandy  River  horse,  or  as  he  was  perhaps  bet- 
ter known,  *'Sandy  River  Trotter,"  Bennett  Horse,  who 
founded  a  family  of  considerable  local  repute;  Red 
Cloud,  Oaks  Horse,  Roman  Eaton,  Black  Morgan,  and 
many  more.  The  most  prominent  of  the  above,  perhaps, 
is  the  chestnut  stallion  Shepherd  F.  Knapp,  that  went  to 
England.  He  (Knapp)  was  bred  by  George  Snell  of 
Turner,  Me.,  got  by  the  Eaton  Horse,  and  his  dam  by 
Whalebone  known  by  many  as  the  Clark  horse,  and  he  by 
Sherman,  son  of  Justin  Morgan.  Knapp  was  owned  from 
a  weanling  to  a  three-year-old  in  Buckfield,  adjoining 
Turner,  and  was  regarded  as  an  exceedingly  promising 
colt,  and  there  was  talk  of  forming  a  stock  company,  to 
buy  and  retain  him  for  stock  purposes.  The  Eaton  and 
Whalebone  families  were  popular  at  that  time,  but  the 
project  fell  through,  and  he  was  sold  and  taken  to  New 
York,  and  afterward  to  England.  As  a  three-year-old  he 
got  Shepherd  Knapp,  Jr.,  2.27|,  and  the  sorrel  mare 
Caoutchouc  2.35^,  out  of  less  than  a  dozen,  which  proves 
that  he  would  have  been  a  successful  sire  here,  whatever 
he  may  have  been  in  England.  Knapp  was  a  trotter  him- 
self and  won  a  race  of  two  miles  and  a  half,  near  Paris, 
France,  in  1865,  the  time  being  6  minutes,  14  seconds,  a 
trifle  better  than  2.30  to  the  mile. 

The  daughters  of  the  Eaton  Horse  were  famous   breed-

GEN.  KNOX,  140. 


In  publishing  the  history  of  Gen.  Knox,  we  find  that  his 
life  has  been  so  much  a  matter  of  record,  and  so  many 
writers  have  preceded  us,  that  our  duty  is  little  more  than 
to  compile  and  arrange  the  data  at  hand.  In  August,  1870, 
Col.  Lang,  who  then  owned  the  horse,  in  reply  to  repeat- 
ed calls  for  information  concerning  him,  published  a  his- 
tory of  the  horse,  while  owned  by  him,  in  the  Maine 
Farmer.  From  this  article  we  extract  the  following, 
which  may  be  relied  upon  as  a  truthful  statement  of  his 
career  while  owned  in  Maine: 

*'I  purchased  Gen.  Knox  of  Messrs.  Denny  &  Bush, 
whose  breeding  establishment  was  near  the  east  shore  of 
Lake  Champlain,  in  the  town  of  Shoreham,  Vt.  The  pur- 
chase was  made  in  January,  1859.  Knox  was  then  three 
years  old,  and  was  called  Slasher  by  his  owners;  he  was 
dropped,  as  I  was  informed,  in  Ticonderoga,  New  York. 
At  the  same  time,  I  purchased  and  brought  to  Maine  the 
stallion  Son  of  Ethan,  by  Ethan  Allen,  and  Bucephalus, 
by  old  Black  Hawk, — dam  of  Bucephalus,  the  celebrated 
mare  Mary  Taylor,  she  by  Boliver,  a  thoroughbred  horse 
— Mary  Taylor's  dam  by  Abdallah.  I  mention  Bucepha- 
lus' pedigree  thus,  as  it  may  interest  some  breeders  in 
Penobscot  County.  A  few  days  after  the  purchase  of  Gen. 
Knox,  I  purchased  the  stallion  Black  Hawk  Telegraph,  of 
W.  G.  Baldwin,  of  Ticonderoga,  N.  Y.,  at  the  same  time 
the  stallion  Grey  Fox,  by  Ethan  Allen,  and  the  well  bred 
mare  Priscilla.  Black  Hawk  Telegraph,  after  serving  in 
the  stud  two  seasons  at  Vassalboro',  was  sold  with  Grey 


NOTED  MAINE  HORSES.  21 

Fox  and  Priscilla,  May,  1861,  to  R.  S.  Denny,  Esq.,  of 
Clappville,  Mass.  Telegraph  was  burnt  in  the  great  fire 
at  Riverside  track.  Gen.  Knox  and  Son  of  Ethan,  I  re- 
tained in  service.  I  also  bought  the  stallion  Sharon,  by 
old  Witherell,  he  by  Winthrop  Messenger,  he  by  inap. 
Messenger.  Sharon  was  sold  to  Wm.  H.  Ladd,  Esq., 
President  of  the  Ohio  Agricultural  Society.  Subsequent- 
ly I  bought  the  stallion  Ned  Davis,  by  Old  Drew;  also, 
the  stallion  Trenton,  by  Geo.  M.  Patchen — dam  of  Tren- 
ton, a  thoroughbred  mare.  Trenton  was  bred  upon  the 
Bonaparte  estate.  New  Jersey. 

The  horse  Trenton  served  three  years  in  the  stud,  one 
in  Vassalboro-  and  two  in  the  town  of  Athens,  in  the  care 
of  Mr.  Brice  Palmer,  when  he  was  removed  from  the  stud 
on  account  of  his  vicious  habits.  Later  I  purchased  the 
stallion  known  as  the  Palmer  Horse  by  Old  Drew.  This 
horse  stood  for  service  one  season  in  Maine,  then  was  sold 
in  Massachusetts.  It  may  not  be  amiss  to  name  the  geld- 
ing Cloudman,  as  I  am  often  asked  his  pedigree.  Cloud- 
man  was  by  Hiram  Drew,  out  of  a  mare  supposed  to  be 
of  Messenger  blood.  He  was  a  remarkably  finely  devel- 
oped horse,  and  should  have  been  kept  a  stallion — trotted 
in  2.30  to  a  one  hundred  and  thirty-eight  pound  wagon,  in 
less  than  one  month's  training.  Subsequently  trotted  a 
mile  in  2.22  and  a  half  in  1.06. 

I  next  bought  of  Alden  Goldsmith,  Esq.,  the  proprietor 
of  the  Hambletonian  stallion  Volunteer,  the  grey  stallion 
Gideon,  by  Rysdyk's  Hambletonian,  he  by  Abdallah,  by 
Mambrino,  by  imp.  Messenger.  Dam  of  Gideon  was  a 
half-sister  to  Lady  Suffolk,  by  thoroughbred  Engineer,  he 
by  Engineer,  and  he  by  imp.  Messenger.  Gideon  is  now 
owned  by  Foster  S.  Palmer,  Esq.  This  horse,  for  which 
I  paid  $2,500  at  four  years  old,  I  consider  one  of  the  best 
descended  horses  ever  brought  to  Maine,  since  old  Mes- 
senger's time,  and  confidently  believe  that  time  will  satis- 
fy breeders  of  the  value  of  this  infusion  of  this  branch  of 


22  NOTED  MAINE  HORSES. 

approved  blood  among  our  Drew,  Messenger  and  Morgan 
stock.  To  return  to  Gen.  Knox,  who  represents  one  branch 
of  the  Messenger  and  Morgan  blood,  will  describe  as  fol- 
lows: Black  with  brownish  stifles,  flanks  and  nose,  star  in 
the  forehead  and  strip  of  white  on  the  upper  lip  and  nose, 
is  15i  hands  high  and  weighs  1050  lbs.  in  fair  condition, 
ample  mane  and  tail,  small,  well-formed  ears,  broad  head 
between  the  eyes,  tapering  to  a  thin,  well-defined  nose, 
rather  thick  neck,  excellent  fore-leg  well  under  the  body, 
hind  leg  quite  remarkable  for  development  of  hock  mus- 
cle— which  he  transmits  to  many  of  his  colts — hock  and 
knee  joints  well  defined.  The  feet  are  perfect,  the  shell 
of  unusual  thickness  and  toughness,  the  body  round  and 
compact,  the  back  is  short,  and  the  loin  as  strong  as  can 
be  found.  In  speaking  of  these  qualifications,  I  cheer- 
fully invite  the  readers  to  criticise  my  description  when- 
ever they  may  see  the  horse.  I  may  add  that  in  all  his 
sweating  and  working,  he  has  never  shown  the  first 
symptom  of  scratches  or  foul  blood ,  has  never  cut  a  hair 
upon  his  fore  feet  in  trotting  or  breaking.  His  temper  is 
always  good,  always  cheerful  and  full  of  spirits  and  am- 
bition, and  never  nervous  at  the  most  exciting  sights  and 
noises.  Strike  him  in  anger  or  abruptly,  and  it  must  be 
a  strong  man  to  hold  him  even  when  tired  with  trotting, 
yet  entirely  under  control  of  the  voice — attaches  himself 
readily  to  those  who  pet  him,  and  when  away  from  home 
on  the  cars  or  boat,  lies  down  to  rest  readily  if  his  groom 
lies  down  near  him.  While  speaking  of  his  intelligence, 
I  will  refer  to  the  occasion  of  his  coming  in  collision  while 
at  speed  upon  the  Waterville  grounds,  for  the  gratification 
of  the  crowd.  He  was  run  into  and  his  driver  thrown  out 
by  parties  going  in  an  opposite  direction.  By  this  acci- 
dent Knox  suffered  seriously,  having  his  breast  and  the 
space  between  his  fore-legs  cut  open  nearly  twenty  inches 
long,  and  the  skin  entirely  taken  ofl"  a  space  one  foot 
square,  and  the  muscle  lacerated  shockingly,  yet  in  the 


NOTED  MAINE  HORSES.  23 

presence  of  a  large  crowd,  he,  perfectly  conscious  of  his 
injury,  allowed  himself  to  be  sewed  up  without  halter  or 
a  strap  upon  him,  or  moving  from  his  tracks. 

Knox  trotted  for  the  first  time  in  public  at  Augusta,  at 
the  State  Agricultural  Show  in  1859,  beating  the  horse 
Brandy,  in  2.54;  both  colts  were  four  years  old.  His  next 
public  work  was  a  few  days  after  this  first  race,  when  he 
trotted  for  the  first  stallion  purse,  of  any  age,  of  the 
North  Kennebec  Agricultural  Society  at  Waterville,  which 
he  won.  His  next  appearance  upon  the  track  was  in  June, 
1860,  when  five  years  old,  when  he  trotted  to  show  his 
gait — being  then  in  service  at  Augusta — in  2.41.  But  not 
getting  any  business  in  the  stud,  he  returned  to  Vassal- 
boro',  and  on  the  3d  of  July  went  to  Skowhegan,  and  on 
the  next  day,  July  4th,  trotted  against  the  Drew  stallion 
Penobscot  Boy.  Knox  lost  the  first  heat  in  2.52,  having 
broken  his  martingal  ring,  and  could  not  be  held.  The 
next  heat  Knox  won  in  2A0h  without  a  break.  Third  heat 
Penobscot  Boy  was  drawn.  His  next  public  trial  was 
against  Lewiston  Boy  and  Kettle-bail,  at  the  Maine  State 
Agricultural  Show  at  Augusta.  Kettle-bail  lost  a  shoe  in 
first  heat  and  was  drawn.  Knox  won  the  first  and  second 
heats.  In  the  third  heat,  which  was  also  given  to  Knox 
by  the  judges,  Knox  ran  badly,  Mr.  Palmer  not  being  able 
to  hold  him.  I  publicly  declined  to  accept  the  race  unless 
fairly  won,  and  preferred  to  try  another  heat.  Knox  hav- 
ing a  change  of  bit,  was  in  hand  and  won  the  4th  heat. 
This  race  was  in  the  rain,  and  the  track  very  muddy — time 
2.44.  On  the  next  day  Knox  was  entered  to  make  a  field 
with  Hiram  Drew — no  other  stallion  having  entered. 
Knox  was  drawn  after  the  first  heat,  not  being  able  to 
compete  with  so  fast  a  horse.  The  next  year,  being  noti- 
fied early  that  a  horse  fair  would  be  holden  in  Bangor,  I 
prepared  my  stock  to  show  at  that  time,  but  when  the  bills 
came  out,  my  horses  were  barred  out  on  account  of  being 
foaled  out  of  the  State.     I  wrote  to  a  manager  desiring  to 


24  NOTED  MAINE  HORSES. 

be  allowed  to  compete,  as  my  horses  expected  to  stand  at 
service  in  Maine,  as  they  had  been  doing,  but  was  notified 
that  it  was  too  late  to  change  the  programme. 

Knox  had  been  trotting  quite  well,  in  his  work  showing 
2.30  and  under  quite  readily.  The  next  year,  being  seven 
years  old,  Knox  was  drawn  early  from  his  services  in  the 
stud,  to  be  prepared  to  meet  the  Drew  stallion  Gen.  Mc- 
Clellan,  then  owned  by  G.  M.  Robinson,  Esq.,  of  Augusta, 
Mr.  Robinson  having  by  letter  expressed  his  desire  to 
bi'ing  the  two  horses  together.  Knox  was  fitted  at  the 
half-mile  track  at  Skowhegan.  He  worked  well 
in  his  private  trials,  showed  2.30,  2.28,  and  once 
2.26.  While  at  this  track  preparing  to  meet  Gen. 
McClellan,  Knox  was  entered  to  trot  two  races  in  one 
afternoon,  one  in  the  stallion  purse  with  Penobscot  Boy, 
his  former  competitor,  and  the  other,  in  the  sweepstakes 
with  Henry  Taylor^s  black  gelding  Lucknow.  Penobscot 
Boy  was  drawn  at  the  close  of  the  second  heat,  and  Luck- 
now  at  the  close  of  the  first  heat,  in  their  respective  races. 
A  few  days  later  Knox  entered  in  the  sweepstakes  of  the 
Waterville  Horse  Association,  expecting  to  meet  Gen.  Mc- 
Clellan. The  day  of  the  race,  Mr.  Robinson  declined  to 
enter  McClellan,  he  having  been  beaten  a  few  days  before 
at  the  Maine  State  Agricultural  Show  at  Portland,  by 
Hiram  Drew,  and  Hiram  was  now  present,  and  had 
entered  for  the  sweepstakes.  Knox  beat  Hiram  easily  in 
three  straight  heats,  without  a  break,  best  time  2.32.  Knox 
was  fitted  for  this  race  in  twenty-two  days  from  the  ser- 
vices of  the  stud,  having  served  one  hundred  and  thirty- 
six  difierent  mares  since  April.  This  season,  near  a  close, 
had  shown  me  such  qualifications  in  Knox,  as  made  me 
desirous  to  draw  him  from  the  track  altogether,  that  his 
services  might  be  had  in  the  stud  without  hindrances  and 
publicly  expressed  that  determination  in  the  stand.  How- 
ever, during  the  next  spring  Knox  was  challenged  to  meet 
Hiram  Drew  in  June,  at  Bangor.    I  declined  for  reasons 


NOTED  MAINE  HORSES.  25 

which  were  published,  but  offered  as  publicly  to  trot  Knox 
against  Hiram  upon  the  Bangor  track  in  September,  with- 
out stakes,  but  for  the  Champion  belt.  This  was  de- 
clined. 

The  reason  which  induced  me  to  give  up  my  determina- 
tion not  to  trot  Knox  again,  was  that  I  desired  to  satisfy 
the  public  that  I  did  not  withdraw  him  because  he  had 
beaten  Hiram  Drew,  and  I  supposed  that  Mr.  Shaw  did 
not  desire  to  try  him  again  with  Hiram.  Had  I  held  the 
champion  belt,  I  should  have  expected  to  have  complied 
with  the  requirements  whenever  called  upon,  as  I  do  not 
doubt  Mr.  Shaw  was  ready  to  do,  if  called  upon.  How- 
ever, I  was  now  called  upon  by  the  Trustees  of  the  New 
England  Society,  myself,  being  one  of  them,  to  rally  the 
Maine  horses  to  meet  and  compete  for  the  honors  of  New 
England  at  the  fair  at  Springfield.  I  did  not  assume  to 
speak  for  Maine,  but  I  did  assume  to  let  Knox  fight  for 
the  honor  of  Maine  in  the  absence  of  any  better  horse, 
against  the  chances  of  bringing  him  home  crest-fallen. 
The  result  was  Knox  beat  Draco  and  two  other  stallions 
who  entered  against  him,  without  a  skip,  in  2.31i,  2.37 
and  2.34.  Horsemen  who  were  there  well  know  that  Knox 
was  held  in  hand  the  last  half  of  each  heat,  scarcely  jog- 
ging to  the  score  in  the  first  heat,  as  I  walked  under  the 
wire  with  my  hand  upon  his  saddle,  and  for  several  rods 
before  he  passed  the  wire  on  his  fastest  heat. 

Knox  had  that  season  served  since  April,  one  hundred 
and  twelve  different  mares,  and  left  fifteen  awaiting  ser- 
vice when  he  left  home  for  Springfield.  In  five  days  af- 
ter leaving  service,  I  had  him  tried  at  Waterville,  (half- 
mile  track).  He  trotted  in  2.30  and  repeated  in  2.28.  I 
started  him  for  Springfield  on  Thursday  morning,  arrived 
there  Sunday  morning,  trotted  him  Thursday,  and  came 
back  to  Boston  same  night,  making  in  all  twenty-one  days 
flora  the  time  he  was  drawn  from  service  until  he  had 
traveled  upon  cars  and  boat  three  days  and  nights  without 


26  NOTED  MAINE  HORSES. 

rest,  won  Ids  race  and  was  bound  home.  I  never  saw 
him  in  such  fine  condition  and  spirits  as  while  at  Spring- 
field, and  after  a  close  examination  b,v  the  committee,  he 
was  awarded  the  first  stock  premium,  as  well  as  for  speed. 
Whether  the  horse  was  looked  upon  by  judges  us  a  trotter 
the  reader  must  judge,  when  I  say  that,  at  a  public  table, 
four  prominent  horsemen  of  New  England  publicly  of- 
fered me  $15,000,  $20,000,  $25,000  and  $30,000  for  him 
the  evening  after  the  race.  If  Knox  was  worth  that  for 
Massachusetts  or  New  York,  he  was  worth  it  for  Maine, 
therefore  I  brought  him  home;  and  when  I  see  such 
animals  as  the  Gilbreth  Knox,  Gen.  Logan,  or  the  Little-

highest  average  that  any  colts  of  any  horse  yet  ever  sold 
for  in  Maine,  I  repeat,  when  I  see  such  animals  among 
those  of  his  first  few  years'  service,  I  am  not  sorry  he  was 
brought  back  to  Maine.  Nor  am  I  sorry  that  my  neigh- 
bors and  friends  can  share  with  me  the  value  of  this  fine 
animal. 

In  the  fall  of  1865,  there  seemed  to  be  a  feeling  on  the 
part  of  the  friends  of  the  Drew  stock  to  see  McClellan 
(who  had  been  making  extraordinary  time  at  Belfast  and 
elsewhere)  and  Knox  come  together  again.  I  therefore 
entered  him  in  the  sweepstakes  at  the  fair  of  the  Horse 
Association  at  Waterville,  and  left  for  Canada,  my  health 
having  entirely  given  out.  The  day  previous  to  the  day 
for  the  sweepstakes  trial,  Mr.  Palmer  was  thrown  from 
his  sulky,  and  badly  injured,  so  as  to  be  unable  to  drive. 
No  other  person  ever  drove  him,  and  my  friends  were 
unwilling  to  take  the  responsibility  to  select  a  driver, 
therefore  Knox  was  drawn,  I  then   felt  it  was  best   to 


NOTED  MAINE  HORSES.  ay 

withdraw  Knox  entirely  from  the  track,  feeling  that  the 
friends  of  the  Drew  stock  having  shown  their  readiness 
to  meet  Knox,  could  not  complain  at  my  decision.  Knox 
has  not  trotted  since,  except  in  August,  1866,  a  few  days 
before  I  left  for  Europe,  fearing  that  I  might  never  see 
the  horse  again,  I  requested  Mr.  Palmer  to  drive  him  a 
half  mile  over  the  usual  exercise  ground  where  he  had 
been  trained  at  speed.  Although  the  horse  was  then  in 
service,  this  was  done  in  the  presence  of  many  spectators, 
without  a  break  in  the  1.12. 

Since  my  departure  for  Europe  in  1866,  the  horse  has 
not  been  trotted  iu  public.  Although  fitted  partially  in 
the  fall  of  1869  to  try  his  speed  at  the  New  England  Fair, 
at  Portland,  he  was  accidentally  lamed  by  a  stroke  in  his 
fore  ankle,  and  unable  to  appear  in  a  race.  Since  April 
of  the  present  year  his  services  have  been  called  for  each 
day,  and  will  be  an  increase  upon  any  year's  service. 

I  have  no  desire  in  writing  this  history  of  Knox  to 
place  him  in  any  false  light  before  the  public  interested 
in  horses,  or  to  detract  one  atom  from  the  great  value  and 
admiration  due  to  the  many  splendid  horses  in  the  stud  in 
Maine  for  ten  years  past  or  at  present.  Not  one  of  them 
that  does  not  possess  traits  which  I  wish  I  could  add  to 
the  Knox  and  his  good  points.  The  good  sense  of  the 
reader  must  see,  that  the  good  points  united  and  fixed  by 
coupling  through  several  generations,  will  bring  Maine 
out  a  winner. 

This  completes  the  history  of  Gen.  Knox  up  to  the  close 
of  the  season  of  1870.  In  1871,  Mr.  Nodine,  of  New 
Yojk,  bought  Gen.  Knox  for  Mr.  Smith,  of  the  Fashion 
Stud  Farm,  Trenton,  N.  J.,  for  the  sum  of  ten  thousand 
dollars.  The  horse  was  not  purchased — so  says  a  writer 
in  Wallace's  Monthly — for  breeding  purposes,  but  as  a 
trotter.  Mr.  Nodine  took  him  to  Prospect  Park  in  July, 
just  before  starting  for  Buffalo,  where  he  was  entei*ed  in 
the  2.30  class.    After  being  there  a  short  time,  Mr.  Smith 


28  NOTED  MAINE  HORSES. 

was  sent  for  to  take  a  mile  and  repeat.  He  could  not  go, 
so  he  sent  James  B.  Bach  and  Mr.  Salters  to  time  him. 
The  first  mile  was  trotted  in  2.25i  and  repeated  with  per- 
fect ease  in  2.24.  He  then  went  to  Buffalo,  where  the  As- 
sociation gave  him  the  best  stall  on  the  track,  a  new  one. 
He  slipped  on  the  fresh  planking,  wrenching  one  of  his 
forward  legs,  and  was  unable  to  start  in  the  race.  In  ten 
days  he  was  well  again,  and  received  some  further  train- 
ing. 

In  1872  he  stood  in  Westchester  County,  New  York,  and 
it  was  not  until  1873  that  he  went  to  Fashion  Farm,  where 
he  has  ever  since  stood  for  service. 

The  pedigree  of  Gen.  Knox  has  undergone  several  re- 
visions, until,  at  present,  it  stands  in  Wallace^s  American 
Trotting  Register,  Vol.  5,  as  follows: 
Gen.  Knox,  blk  h  foaled  1855;  got  by  Vermont  Hero,then 
known  as  the  "Rockwood  Colt,"  son  of  Sherman  Black 
Hawk;  dam  by  Searcher,  sou  of  Barney  Henry ;  g  d 
the  Hunsden  Mare,  by  Hill's  Sir  Charles,  son  of  Duroc, 
and  out  of  a  mare  by  Plato.  Bred  by  Daniel  Heustis, 
Bridport,  Vt. ;  sold  with  his  dam,  1855,  to  Oliver 
Eldridge,  and  by  him  the  colt  alone  was  sold  to  D.  A. 
Bennett,  all  of  the  same  place;  at  three  years  old  Ben- 
net  sold  him  to  Denny  &  Bush,  representing  him  to  be 
by  Sherman  Black  Hawk,  and  the  same  year  he  was 
purchased  by  Col.  T.  S.  Lang,  and  taken  to  Maine, 
where  he  stood  at  the  head  of  all  New  England  stal- 
lions till  1872,  when  he  was  purchased  at  ten  thousand 
dollars  by  his  present  owner,  Henrv  N.  Smith,  Fashion 
Stud  Farm,  Trenton,  N.  J. 

This  result  is  reached  after  a  thorough  investigation  of 
the  subject,  and  we  regard  it  as  conclusive,  as,  aside  from 
Mr.  Wallace  himself,  the  pedigrees  in  the  3rd  Volume 
were  subject  to  the  approval  of  a  board  of  censors,  com- 
prised of  several  of  the  most  intelligent  breeders  of  the 
country. 

Mr.  Helm, in  his  work  entitled  American  Roadsters  and 
Trotting  Horses,  says  of  Gen.  Knox,  *'He  spent  nearly 
all  of  his  days  prior  to  1872  in  the   State  of  Maine.     A

lucky  State  to  have  held  one  such  sire,  for  he  has  been  a 
most  remarkable  one.  We  have  produced  no  stallion  in 
our  day  which  can  surpass  him.  At  present  his  reputa- 
tion as  a  sire  is  based  upon  what  he  did  while  owned  in 
Maine." 

Among  the  get  of  Gen.  Knox  are  the  following  who 
have  records  of  2.80  or  better;  Lady  Maud,  2.18^; 
Camors,  2.19};  Knox  Boy,  2.23^  ;  Peaceful,  2.26;  Gil- 
breth  Knox,  2.261 ;  Emperor  William,  2  27i ;  Harry 
Spanker,  2.30;  Independence,  2.21  J;  Victor,  2.23.  Gen. 
Knox  has  ten  sons  that  have  sired  2.30  trotters,  and  is  the 
sire  of  the  dams  of  Bay,  2.27i;  Cunard,  2.30;  Geo.  O., 
2.24i;  and  Tommy  Norwood,  2.26i. 

Besides  these  he  has  an  array  of  sons  and  daughters 
with  records  in  the  thirties,  achieved  on  the  slow  half 
mile  tracks  of  this  State,  that  in  any  other  State  under 
favorable  circumstances,  would  have  placed  him  along- 
side of  the  most  prominent  sires  in  the  country.

RISING  SUN,  429. 


As  the  2.30  list  contains  the  names  of  several  animals 
who  trace  in  the  direct  male  line  to  this  horse,Ilising  Sun,  it 
has  been  thought  by  the  writer  that  as  a  matter  of  history 
it  might  be  valuable,  and  perhaps  not  wholly  devoid  of 
interest  to  the  general  reader  as  well,  that  the  facts  con- 
cerning this  family  of  horses  should  be  put  on  record. 
Rising  Sun  was  a  light,  or  yellowish  bay  stallion,  with 
star  in  the  forehead,  and  black  mane  and  tail,  15^  hands 
high,  and  weighed  about  1,000  lbs.  He  was  foaled  in 
1843,  bred  by  Eben  Young,  of  Peru,  Me.  He  was 
purchased  when  four  months  old  by  Messrs.  G.  &  C. 
Hayford,  of  Canton,  who  kept  him  until  the  Fall  after  he 
was  two  years  old,  when  he  was  purchased  by  Major 
Isaac  Strickland,  of  Livermore,  who  in  turn  sold  him 
when  five  years  old  to  Gideon  Ellis,  Jr.,  of  Canton. 

He  was  finally  sold  to  Grant  and  Milliken,  of  Farming- 
dale,  and  from  thence  taken  to  Massachusetts,  but  was 
afterward  brought  back  to  Waterville,  from  Waterville 
to  Livermore,  into  Major  Strickland's  hands  again,  and 
was  finally  sold  and  died  in  Franklin  county  in  1867. 

The  sire  of  Rising  Sun  was  a  dark  bay  stallion,  with 
heavy  black  mane  and  tail,  and  black  legs,  and  weighed 
about  1,000  pounds.  He  was  brought  into  Canton  in 
January,  1842,  from  Meddy hemps,  near  Calais,  by  a  Mr. 
Grifteth,  who  said  that  he  was  owned  by  his  father-in-law, 
a  Mr.  Gilman  who  was  in  the  Legislature,  and  he  (Griff- 
eth)  had  taken  the  horse  to  winter.  The  pedigree  of  this 
horse  (the  sire  of  Rising  Sun)  was  unknown,  as  also  any- 


NOTED  MAINE  HORSES.  31 

thing  concerning  his  history  previous  to  his  being  brought 
to  Canton,  up  to  the  time  my  history  of  Maine-bred 
horses  appeared  in  1874.  Since  that  time  I  have  received 
a  communication  from  Caleb  Oilman  of  Meddybemps,  a 
son  of  the  former  owner  of  the  Oilman  Horse,  as  he  was 
called,  and  it  probably  gives  all  that  is  known  concern- 
ing him: 

Meddybemps,  June  5,  1876. 
In  your  communication  to  the  Maine  Farmer,  of  the 
27th,  ult.,  in  reference  to  the  pedigree  of  Rising  Sun,  you 
make  mention  of  his  sire  being  a  horse  owned  by  a  Mr. 
Oilman,  and  sold  in  Canton  in  1842.  Thinking  a  short 
history  of  this  horse  might  be  of  interest  to  you,  I  made 
inquiry  of  the  man  who  raised  him,  Mr.  Robert  Bridges 
of  this  town,  and  he  made  the  following  statement: 
"The  sire  of  'Major'  (that  vvas  the  name  of  the  Oilman 
horse)  was  a  colt  that  I  bought  of  Abram  Marks,  of  St. 
Stephen,  N.  B.  He  was  by  an  English  horse  called 
Hunter,  and  out  of  a  full  blooded  English  mare,  both 
owned  by  Marks  and  kept  for  running  races.  The  dam 
of  Major  was  a  light  bay  mare,  weighing  about  1,000, 
and  a  splendid  roadster.  I  purchased  her  from  a  man 
named  Webster,  a  school-teacher  from  Durham,  Me., 
who  brought  her  into  this  country  from  Sandy  River.  I 
know  nothing  of  her  pedigree,  but  she  was  a  very  valua- 
ble animal."  This  is  Mr.  Bridges'  statement  and  can  be 
relied  upon.  Major  was  one  of  the  best  styled  horses 
that  was  ever  in  this  country.  I  used  when  a  boy  to 
drive  him  some,  and  I  never  saw  a  horse  on  the  road  that 
had  any  business  with  him.  My  father  purchased  him 
when  about  three  years  old. 

Very  Respectfully,  &c., 

Caleb  Oilman. 

The  Dam  of  Rising  Sun  was  a  bay  mare  owned  by 
Eben  Young,  of  Peru,  and  in  order  to  give  all  that  is 
known  concerning  her  blood  it  is  necessary  to  digress  a 
little.  About  fifty  years  ago  Maj.  Bennett  Pompilly,  of 
Turner,  a  noted  horseman,  when  running  horses  were 
popular  in  this  State,  went  to  Long  Island  and  brought 
home  a  white  stallion  which  he  called  Young  Duroc.  This 
is  the  only  pedigree  that  was  ever  given  him  in   Maine. 


32  NOTED  MAINE  HORSES. 

From  many  circumstances  it  would  seem  that  he  may 
have  been  by  Duroc,  son  of  imp.  Diomed.  Durocdied  in 
1825  on  Long  Island,  where  he  had  been  owned  for  many 
years,  and  this  borse.  Young  Duroc,  was  brought  to 
Maine  in  say,  1828  or  29,  a  fact  which  leaves  nothing 
antagonistic  in  the  way  of  dates. 

Again,  like  the  get  of  Duroc,  he  was  a  fast  running 
horse,  and  will  be  well  remembered  even  now  by  many 
who  saw  him  run  fifty  years  ago  on  the  plains  at  Turner, 
Westbrook,  Norridgewock  and  other  points  throughout 
the  State.  As  a  sire,  I  have  heard  many  men  say  that  his 
get  were  greatly  inclined  to  imperfect  limbs,  showing 
marked  tendency  to  curb,  ringbon*  and  spavin.  This  was 
eminently  characteristic  of  the  get  of  Duroc  himself. 
But  theorize  as  we  may,  his  pedigree  must  always  remain 
as  it  is  at  present,  unknown.  This  horse  was  the  sire  of 
the  Eben  Young  mare  that  produced  Rising  Sun.  As  a 
trotter  Rising  Sun  was  untrained,  he  was  a  roadster  of 
great  courage,  a  fast  walker,  but  when  urged  to  his  fastest 
was  inclined  to  single-foot.  It  is  the  opinion  now  of 
those  best  qualified  to  judge,  who  knew  him  best,  that 
with  the  present  skillful  methods  of  training,  combined 
with  a  judicious  use  of  toe-weights,  he  might  have  earned 
a  record  unsurpassed  by  any  of  his  descendants. 

As  a  sire  of  2.30  horses  Rising  Sun  appears  but  once,  in 
connection  with  that  of  his  son,  Nabocklish,  the  Never 
Mind  of  Simpson's  "Horse  Portraiture,"  as  follows: 
Nabocklish,  blk  g,  by  Rising  Sun 2.29^ 

It  seems  as  though  the  owners  of  the  descendants  of 
Rising  Sun  had  a  marked  partiality  for  the  name  of 
Emperor,  as  two  Emperors  appear  in  the  2.30  list  as 
follows : 

Emperor,  b  g  by  Rollins  Horse,  son  of  Rising  Sun 2.30 

Emperor,  blk  h  by  Newman  Horse,  son  of  Rollins  Horse, 
by  Rising  Sun 2.29i 

Besides  the  above  we  have : — 


NOTED  MAINE  HORSES.  33 

Tammany,  gr  g  by  son  of  Rising  Sun 

The  above  list  completes  the  history  of  the  Rising  Sun 
family,  as  represented  in  the  2.30  list  up  to  date.  Besides 
the  above  we  have  Carthage  Boy,  2.32i,  Lady  Fairfield, 
Lady  Berry  and  many  others  with  records  in  the  thirties, 
also  Lady  Balch  and  Lady  Childs,  noted  brood  mares.  It 
may  be  well,  perhaps,  to  state  that  this  horse  Major,  alias 
the  Oilman  Horse,  lived  to  make  only  one  season  at  Can- 
ton, as  he  died  in  March,  1843,  the  property  of  G.  &  C. 
Hayford,  who  purchased  him  the  first  vdnter  he  was  kept 
there.  They  called  him  Rising  Sun,  and  he  is  now  called 
by  the  old  inhabitants  the  Old,  First,  or  Original  Rising 
Sun,  to  distinguish  from  his  son,  who  is  known  by  horse- 
men and  fanciers  everywhere  as  the  Rising  Sun,  the 
founder  of  the  family.

WINTHROP  MORRILL,  373. 


Winthrop  Morrill  has  been  well  described  by  one  who 
knew  him  well,  as  follows: 

"Bright  bay  horse  with  dark  points,  star,  oflf  hind  ankle 
white;  full  mane  and  tail;  height  about  15i  handn; 
weight,  1,000  pounds;  head,  after  the  Morgan  type,  clean 
and  intelligent;  neck,  thin,  long,  blood-like,  and  carried 
in  good  style.  Shoulders  sloping  and  strong;  chest 
deep;  back  stout  and  beautiful  in  contour  from 
withers  to  haunches;  barrel,  round  and  well  ribbed  back; 
tail  finely  set  on  and  well  carried ;  limbs  rather  light  in 
bone,  but  well  muscled;  hind  pasterns  very  straight; 
upper  bone  of  the  forearm  let  down  low  to  the  knee ; 
cannon-bone  short;  feet  blue,  tough  and  excellent. 
Foaled,  1855. 

Placed  in  training  when  from  three  to  four  years  old, 
he  devoloped  wonderful  speed  as  a  trotter,  and  was  en- 
tered in  a  race  at  Providence,  R.  I.  Too  severe  work  for 
a  youngster  caused  him  to  suddenly  shift  from  a  trot  to  a 
pace.  Repeated  attempts  failing  to  correct  the  evil  he 
was  traded  to  a  jockey  and  went  to  Maine,  where  he 
passed  from  one  to  another  at  a  mere  pittance  in  price, 
finally  bringing  up  in  a  peddler's  cart.  While  in  this 
menial  capacity,  he  sired  the  chestnut  gelding  Fleetwood, 
record,  2.29.  Purchased  by  Geo.  C.  Goodale,  then  of 
"Winthrop,  Me.,  for  ninety  dollars,  he  was  used  for 
general  farm  work  for  a  season  and  finally  sold  to  Messrs. 
Charles  G.  Jackson  and  Jos.  G.  Rounds,  and  went  into 
the  stud  at   Winthrop.    In   Mr.   Goodale's  possession  he 


WiNTHROP  Morrill.  373. 


NOTED  MAINE  HORSES.  35 

was  driven  a  carefully  measured  mile  on  Winthrop  pond, 
two  men  to  a  sleigh,  without  a  break  in  2.32,  the  last 
quarter  in  the  remarkable  time  of  33  seconds  or  a  2.12 
gait,  and  was  not  up  to  his  speed  until  the  half  mile  was 
passed.  He  paced  at  that  time,  but  next  season  shifted, 
and  has  been  a  square  trotter  since.  His  success  in  the 
stud,  always  with  common  hard-worked  farmer's  mares 
(Gen.  Knox  and  Drew  always  taking  the  best)  is  a  mat- 
ter of  public  record.  At  the  close  of  the  season  of  1877 
he  stood  number  five  on  the  list  of  sires  of  horses 
trotting  in  2.30  or  better.  Said  list  including  all 
which  have  trotted  in  that  time  since  the  first  record  in 
this  country,  viz:  Hambletonian,  27  representatives; 
Volunteer,  16  representatives;  Blue  Bull,  10  representa- 
tives; Daniel  Lambert,  9  representatives;  Winthrop  Mor- 
rill, 7  representatives. 

His  get  are  uniformly  of  great  courage,  excellent  trot- 
ting action,  and  have  an  appearance  of  higher  breeding 
than  would  be  expected  from  his  ancestry. 

Mr.  H.  T.  Helm,  in  his  work  entitled  ^'American  Boad- 
sters  and  Trotting  HorseSy^'  has  the  following  concern- 
ing Winthrop  Morrill. 

''This  is  one  of  the  most  successful  stallions  of  the 
Morgan  family,  and  the  only  one  that  can  be  claimed  to 
be  a  real  Morgan.  He  was  foaled  in  1855,  is  a  bay  horse, 
by  Young  Morrill,  his  dam  by  the  Huckins  Horse,  son  of 
Royal  Morgan,  called  al«o  Morgan  Rattler;  his  next  dam 
by  Morgan  Eagle  and  the  next  by  Bulrush.  He  has  two 
crosses  of  Messenger,  one  of  Duroc ;  the  one  line  to  the 
Vance  Horse  through  old  Morrill,and  the  dam  of  Morgan 
Eagle  being  by  Callender,  son  of  American  Eclipse. 
But  it  is  a  matter  of  frequent  occurrence  that  one  or  two 
crosses  of  Messenger  blood  in  connection  with  genuine 
road  elements,  will  after  awhile  develop  and  produce  a 
trotter  and  a  trotting  sire. 

Such  was  the  case  with  Rhode  Island,  and  such  un- 


36  NOTED  MAINE  HORSES. 

doubtedly  was  the  case  with  (xolddust.  The  blood  of 
Messenger  received  such  modification  by  the  road  ele- 
ments found  in  these  Morgan  strains  as  to  give  it  the  true 
character  of  trotting  blood,  and  to  eliminate  all  racing  in- 
clination from  it.  The  germ  once  planted  would  come 
out,  and  the  result  in  Winthrop  Morrill,  is  a  trottting  sire 
of  remarkable  success.  He  stands  side  by  side  with  Knox 
and  Lambert,  but  is  more  nearly  a  Morgan  than  either  of 
them." 

The  following  is  the  pedigree  of  Winthrop  Morrill,  as  it 
appears  in  the  American  Trotting  Register,  Vol.  2,  pub- 
lished in  1874: 

Winthrop  Morrill  (late  Slasher),  b.  h.,  foaled  1855; 
got  by  Young  Morrill  (Perkins')  ;  dam  by  the  Huck- 
ins    Horse,   son  of  Royal  Morgan, — known    as  the 
Crane  Horse,  Steele  Horse,  and  Morgan  Rattler  ;g.d. 
by  Morgan  Eagle;  g.  g.  d.  by  Bulrush;  g.  g.  g.  d.  by 
old  Carson,  son  of  Quicksilver.    Bred  by  Rodney 
Bradford,  Barre,  Vt. ;  sold,  before  three  years  old,  to 
Mr.  Town,  and  kept  under  the  name  of  Slasher,  till 
1860,  when  he  was  sold  to  Leonard  T.  Tucker;  in 
June,  1861,  to  H.  B.  Varrill,  Laconia,  N.  H. ;  passed 
through  two  or  three  hands  to  David  Blanchard,  Bos- 
ton; sold  to  Mr.  Savage,  Waterville,  Me.;  then,  in

showing  as  a  sire  of  speed,  considering  the  fact  that  he 
commenced  his  stud  career  six  years  after  Gen.  Knox,  and 
under  the  most  adverse  circumstances,  standing  for  a  ser- 
vice fee  of  five  dollars,  securing  the  very  poorest  class  of 
mares  until,  by  the  force  of  his  own  merit,  he  won  a  place 
of  honor  and  distinction.  Like  Gen.  Knox,  he  would 
doubtless  have  added  several  to  the  number  with  records 
of  2.30,  had  he  remained  in  Maine,  for,  like  him,  the  years 
he  has  spent  out  of  the  State  are  a  blank.  What  may  yet 
result  from  these  years  of  stud  service,  of  course  no  one 
can  foretell ;  but  it  seems  a  strange  coincidence  that,  as 
the  result  of  the  last  year's  service  in  Maine,  each  pro- 
duced some  that  have,  and  several  that  can  beat  2.30,  while 
we  do  not  recall  one  with  a  record  that  either  sired  after 
leaving  Maine.

BRIDGHAM  HORSE. 

Bridgham  horse  or  Young  Indian  Chief,  for  Mr.  Bridg- 
ham,  who  formerly  owned  him,  assures  us  that  he  was 
always  known  and  advertised  by  that  name,  was  a  large 
showy  horse  weighing  in  good  condition  thirteen  hundred 
pounds.  He  was  a  powerful  horse  with  an  open  slashing 
gait  and  fine  knee  action,  and  could  trot  fast  for  the  times. 

He  was  a  flea-bitten  gray  in  color  which  did  not  bleach 
out  with  age,  the  spots  being  large  and  diamond  shaped. 
His  ears  were  large  and  set  wide  apart  on  his  head  which 
gave  him  the  appearance  of  being  lop-eared. 

Mr.  Geo.  Bridgham  then  of  Poland  Corner  bought  him 
in  1849 — the  horse  then  being  called  eight  years  old — of  a 
gentleman  named  Wentworth  Archibald,  who  brought 
him  to  that  place  and  said  that  he  bought  him  of  a  truck- 
man in  Bangor  named  Hathaway. 

It  seems  that  Mr.  A.  was  a  sickly  man,  and  died  shortly 
after  disposing  of  the  horse,  and  we  have  the  impression 
that  he  lived  at  Poland  Corner.  Mr.  Bridgham,  whose 
letter  lies  before  us,  adds  "he  was  always  called  a  Messen- 
ger horse  while  I  owned  him,  and  I  never  heard  it  dis- 
puted.''   This  latter  statement,  together  with  the  endorse- 


NOTED  MAINE  HORSES.  6i 

ment  given  by  the  public  in  general,  that  the  Bridgham 
horse  was  *^a  Messenger,"  we  are  inclined  to  the  absence 
of  proof,  to  receive  with  considerable  allowance.  We 
regard  the  fact  that  he  was  called  Young  Indian  Chief  as 
significant.  The  gray  stallion  Indian  Chief,  brought  to 
Maine  from  Canada,  was  a  prominent  stock  horse  in  1841 
and  '42,  and  it  is  possible  that  the  Bridgham  horse,  or 
Young  Indian  Chief,  was  got  by  him  and  out  of  a  Mes- 
senger dam. 

Bridgham  sold  the  horse  to  America  Farrar,  of  Buck- 
field  ;  finally  repurchased  him  and  kept  him  four  years, 
after  which  he  was  owned  by  different  parties;  viz;  Are- 
tus  Farrar,  of  Buckfield;  Essec  Fuller,  of  Turner;  Nat. 
Mabury  and  others.  He  was  well  known  in  this  vicinity 
as  the  horse  that  bit  Essec  Fuller,  and  will  pass  into 
history  as  the  sire  of  the  dam  of  Hopeful.

EITHER,  EDWIN  D. 


Edwin  D.  Either  was  born  in  Charleston,  Me.,  August 
7  th,  1851,  and  as  his  hand  was  the  first  to  guide  a  trotter 
in  public  in  2.10  we  have  thought  it  appropriate  in  a  work 
like  this  to  give  him  a  prominent  position.  In  1871,  when 
20  years  of  age,  young  Either  went  West  and  entered  the 
employ  of  Mr.  J.  I.  Case  of  Racine,  Wis.,  where  he  has 
ever  since  remained.  His  preliminary  lessons  in  training 
and  driving  were  taken  under  the  tuition  of  Foster  S. 
Palmer,  then  of  Eangor,  Me.,  who  brought  out  Gen.  Knox. 
Since  Either  has  been  in  the  employ  of  Mr.  Case  he  has 
driven  to  a  record  Dom  Pedro,  2.27,  Edwin  E.,  2.27,  Phal- 
las,  2.131  and  Jay-Eye-See,  2.10,  the  last  two  of  which 
were  entirely  developed  by  him.  We  believe  no  other 
man  living  has  brought  out  and  driven  to  their  records 
two  such  horses  as  the  above.  He  is  said  by  one  who 
knows  him  well  to  be  "a  good  conditioner,  and  handles 
his  horses  with  rare  good  judgment.  He  has  plenty  of 
courage,  without  too  much  temper,  and  will  live  out  a 
race  and  win,  if  his  horse  is  equal  to  the  emergency."

DRUMMER  GIRL. 

Most  of  our  Maine  readers  will  remember  the  roan  mare 
Drummer  Girl ;  a  little  mare  under  15  hands  high,  a  plucky^ 
gamey  mare  with  a  rapid,  drumming  gait,  which  won  her 
her  name.     She  was  an  inbred   Brandywine,   being  by  a 
son  of  Cobb's  Brandywine,  dam  by  another  son,  and  was 
bred  by  a  Mr.  Seavlin,  of  Minot,  Me.,  and  foaled  in  1871. 
We  first  noticed  her  at  Presumpscot  Park,  in   Sept.   1882, 
when  in  Jerry  Woodbury's  hands  she  won  third  money  in 
the  3.00  class.    She  had  previously  seen  hard   usage  as  a 
let  horse  in  a  Livery  Stable  at  Norway,  Me.,   where  Will 
Shaw  got  her  and  sold  her  to  W.  W.  Lydston   of  Lewis- 
ton.    At  the  Maine  State  Fair  at  Lewiston,  on  the  28th  of 
Sept.  following,  she  won  the  race  for  Green  Horses,  win- 
ning the  first  heat  in  2.41,  the   second   in   2.40?,   and  the 
fifth  and  race  in  2.38i.  Oct.  5th,  following,  at  the  Oxford 
County  Fair,  she  won  second  money  to  Dandy  J.,    win- 
ning the  first  heat  in  2.41^  and  the  fourth  in  2.36^.     In  the 
early  spring  of  1888,  she  disappeared,   together  with  her 
owner  and  groom,  and  we  subseqoently   learned  that  she 
was  shipped  to  Pennsylvania,  was  clipped  and  June  27th, 
at  Erie  started  in  the  3.00  class.   July  4th,  at  Youngstown, 
Ohio,  as  William  Wallace's   brown  mare  Lizzie   D.,   by 
Royal  Revenge,  dam  Lizzie,  by  Simpson's  Blackbird;  she 
won  the  2.40  race,  winning  the  second  heat   in   2.30i   and 
fourth  and  fifth  in  2.37^  and  2.34.    On  the  same   day  she 
won  second  money  in  the  3.00  race,  being  second  in  every 
heat  in  2.37,  2.31i,  2.34.    July  5th,  at  the  same  place,  she 
won  2d  money  in  the  2.45  class,  winning  the  third  heat  in 
2.34i.    July  11th,  W.  Wallace's  brown    mare   Lizzie   D., 
by  Brandywine,  at  Bennington,  Vt.,  won  the  3.00  race  in 
straight  heats  in  2.39i,  2.40,  2.39i.    July  24th,   at  Hoosac 
Falls,  N.  Y.,  W.  Wallace's  brown  mare  Lizzie   D.,   won 
the  2.35  race  for  a  purse  of  $300  in  four   he  its,   winning 
the  last  three  in  2.39|,  2.35,  2.36i.     The  next  day   at   the 
same  place  she  won  the  3.00  race,  purse  $300,  winning  the 


NOTED  MAINE  HORSES.  83 

last  three  in  five  heats  in  2.34,  2.39^,  2.38«|.  When  the 
Maine  Central  Circuit  for  1883,  opened  at  Lewiston  on 
the  8th  of  August,  Drummer  Girl  appeared  upon  the 
scene,  and  starting  in  the  2.30  class  she  won  third  money. 
The  next  week  at  Norway,  Oxford  Co.  Fair  Grounds,  she 
won  second  money  in  the  2.30  class,  but  did  not  win  a  heat 
at  either  place.  Sept.  28th,  at  Erie,  Pa.,  she  started  again 
again  as  Lizzie  D.,  and  won  in  slow  time.  After  this  she 
was  traded  to  parties  in  Pennsylvania,  for  the  brown  geld- 
ing Little  Jack,  and  at  Erie,  Pa.,  June  27th,  1884,  under 
the  management  of  W.  D.  Maybe,  she  started  in  the  2.30 
class  as  Lizzie  D.  but  did  not  win.  The  next  day  at  the 
same  place  her  old  competitor  at  Norway,  Me.,  in  1882, 
Dandy  J.,  now  Frank  Hull,  won  the  2.37  race  in  straight 
heats.  June  19th,  previously  she  had  started  at  Dunkirk, 
N.  Y.,  winning  third  heat  in  2.30|  and  was  placed  third 
in  the  race.  July  2d,  at  St.  Mary's  Pa.,  Lizzie  D.,  by 
Royal  Revenge,  (?)  again  won  third  money  in  the  2.30 
class,  winning  one  heat  in  slow  time.  After  this  Drum- 
mer Girl,  alias  Lizzie  D.,  seems  to  have  sought  ^'fresh 
fields  and  pastures  new"  and  we  next  find  this  outlaw  of 
the  turf,  under  the  management  of  the  James  Bros.,  (how 
appropriate  the  name)  on  a  ringing  tour  through  Michi- 
gan with  the  new  alias  of  roan  mare  Bessie  G.  July  23d, 
at  Eaton  Rapids,  she  won  second  money  in  the  3.00  race, 
and  two  days  afterwards  second  money  in  the  2.50  race, 
each  for  a  purse  of  $300,  and  the  next  week,  July  28th, 
at  Battle  Creek,  she  repeated  the  performance.  The  next 
week,  Aug.  oth  and  7th,  at  Marshall,  Mich.,  she  repeated 
winning  second  money  in  the  3.00  and  2.50  races  respect- 
ively. The  next  week  at  Jackson,  she  won  third  money 
in  the  3.00  and  2.50  races,  winning  a  heat  in  2.41  in  one 
race,  and  a  heat  in  2.33i  with  equal  ease  in  the  other. 

We  believe  this  closes  her  career  up  to  date,  although 
she  has  started  in  other  races.  Of  course  the  name  of 
Maybe  was  ficticious  as  well  as  that  of  the  mare,   and  up-

on  being  asked  why  he  adopted  it,  her  owner  replied, 
''Because  ma2/ fte  I  shall  get  caught."  The  James  Bros, 
was  another  alias.

which  we  copy  from  the  Belfast  Journal: 

''At  6.30  Thursday  morning,  the   12th  of   March,   Mr.

Bailey  took  Mr.  Johnson  into  his  sleigh  with  the  intention 
of  giving  him  a  spin  down  Northport  avenue.  When  on 
Church  street  the  horse  shied  a  little  and  the  sleigh  run- 
ning upon  the  high  bank  beside  the  street,  both  men  were 
thrown  out.  The  horse  attempted  to  turn  up  Grove  street, 
but  broke  through  the  iron  fence  at  the  residence  of  Capt. 
Joseph  S.  Thombs.  The  animal,  now  thoroughly  fright- 
ened, went  out  over  the  fence  again  and  down  Northport 
avenue  where  he  was  stopped  and  brought  home.  The 
horse  seemed  to  be  uninjured  save  a  small  cut  upon  the  in- 
side ot  the  right  hind  leg.  Seven  days  after  the  accident 
Mr.  Bailey  telegraphed  to  George  H.  Bailey,  veterinary 
surgeon  at  Portland,  who  came  to  Belfast,  and  on  examin- 
ing the  wound  discovered  a  piece  of  the  iron  fence  firmly 
embedded  in  the  bone,  about  five  inches  below  the  stifle 
joint.  Dr.  Bailey  was  unable  to  remove  the  iron  and  sent 
for  Dr.  Wood  of  Lowell,  Mass.,  and  on  Monday  evening 
last  both  surgeons  arrived  with  instruments  and  worked 
unsuccessfully  until  midnight.  Tuesday  forenoon  the  horse 
was  etherized  and  cast,  and  with  the  assistance  of  Drs. 
Johnson  and  Lombard  and  Chas.  Baker,  the  iron  was  re- 
moved. The  piece  was  the  point  of  an  iron  picket  two 
and  a  quarter  inches  long,  about  half  an  inch  thick  at  the 
base,  and  was  imbedded  two  inches  in  the  bone.  Dr. 
Johnson  cut  away  a  portion  of  the  bone  before  the  iron 
could  be  removed.

board, but  Knox  was  a  little  frightened  and  was  finally 
let  go,  trotting  half  way  around  the  course  alone,  when 
he  held  up  and  was  captured.  Another  vehicle  was  fur- 
nished and  they  got  the  word.  The  fourth  heat  was  won

got  by  Winthrop  Morrill,  and  his  dam  was  a  small  gray 
mare  said  to  be  a  Messenger.  This  reminds  us  of  a  story 
which  we  have  heard  concerning  the  mare  the  time  she 
was  taken  up  to  be  served  by  Winthrop  Morrill,  for  the 
truth  of  which,  however,  we  cannot  vouch.  The  mare 
had  been  at  work  all  the  afternoon  raking  hay,  after 
which  she  had,  while  wet  with  perspiration  been  turned 
into  the  pasture  to  get  her  supper.  Here  she  rolled  in  the 
dirt  until  the  appearance  she  presented  can  be  better  im- 
agined than  described.  In  this  plight  she  was  taken  up  to 
the  horse.  Several  Boston  horsemen  were  present,  who 
joined  in  making  derisive  remarks  at  the  expense  of  the 
mare,  but  which  were  silenced  by  Mr.  Chas.  Jackson,  the 
owner  of  Winthrop  Morrill,  who  was  then  living,  who  re- 
marked in  his  characteristic  way,  ''Gentlemen,  if  this  mare 
produces  a  colt,  don't  you  forget  that  it  will  be  a  good 
one."  Honest  Harry  was  the  result  of  this  union.  In 
April,  1875,  he  was  purchased  by  Mr.  T.  B.  Williams  of 
Boston,  and  J.  G.  Rounds  of  Lynn,  Mass.  At  Mystic 
Boston,  Honest  Harry  won  the  2.25  race,  fastest  heat  2.28. 
At  the  Fall  Meeting  of  the  Charter  Oak  Park,  Hartford, 
Conn.,  Oct.  28th,  1877,  Honest  Harry  won  a  second  heat 
in  2.224  and  the  third  in  2.25.  He  has  to  his  credit  50 
heats  in  2.30  and  better.

name  of  Hopeful.  He  is  a  gray  gelding  15  hands  high, 
foaled  in  1866,  on  the  farm  of  Eli  Whitcomb,  No.  Dix- 
mont,  Me.,  the  property  of  B.  D.  Whitcomb  of  Boston; 
got  by  Godfrey's  Patchen,  dam  a  gray  mare  bred  by  Gid- 
eon Fletcher  of  Buckfield,  Me.,  got  by  the  Bridgham 
Horse,  2d  dam  by  Whalebone,  son  of  Sherman,  3d  dam  by 
Winthrop  Messenger.  Aug.  25th,  1873,  he  made  his  first 
appearance  in  public,  in  a  race  for  horses  which  had  never 
started  for  money,  winning  the  first  and  second  heats  in 
2.49^  and  2. 45f|,  after  which  he  was  drawn.  He  ended 
the  season,  however,  with  a  record  of  2.25.  Hopeful  was 
afterwards  sold  to  Dunn  Walton  of  New  York,  and  Aug. 
5th,  1875,  at  Poughkeepsie,  he  won  in  2.221,  2.28,  2.28. 
Aug.  31st,  at  Charter  Oak  Park,  Hartford,  he  won  again 
in  2.18i,  2.22^,  2.19,  2  20i,  2.23i,  losing  the  second  and 
third  heats.  The  week  following,  Sept.  3d,  at  the  same 
place.  Hopeful  beat  American  Girl  in  straight  lieats  in 
2.171,  2.18^,  2.18i.  In  1878  Hopeful  was  very  successful. 
After  trotting  with  inditferent  success  through  the  early 
X)art  of  the  season,  he  entered  the  Grand  Circuit  at  Cleve- 
land, in  the  free-for-all.  The  following  account  of  the 
race  at  Cleveland,  we  take  from  the  Turf,  Field  &FaTm\ 
''The  open-to  all  race  was  one  of  the  most  remarkable 
contests  ever  seen  in  the  world.  Hopeful  did  not  have 
many  friends  for  the  reason  that  he  had  performed  badly 
at  Toledo,  and  then  it  was  known  that  he  is  an  uncertain 
horse.  Mr.  Richmond  had  insisted  that  Dan  Mace  should 
drive  him,  and  the  knowledge  of  this  fact  induced  a  few 
to  back  him  at  the  rate  of  ten  dollars  against  one  hundred. 
The  starters  were  Hopeful,  Proteine,  Cozette  and  Nettie. 
Proteine  was  all  the  rage.  On  coming  to  the  wire  for  the 
third  time  the  word  was  given.  Hopeful  got  away  level, 
and  he  led  Great  Eastern  around  the  turn  by  a  length. 
Proteine  was  fourth  at  the  quarter,  Cozette  last  and  in  the 
air.     Along  the  backstretch,  the  daughter  of   Blackwood 


MAINE  2.30  LIST.  295 

trotted  ver\'  fast,  and  at  the  third  quarter  she  was  on  even 
terms  with  Great  Eastern.  She  said  good-bye  to  the  son 
Walkill  Chief  down  the  home-stretch,  and  was  beaten  un- 
der the  wire  by  Hopeful  by  a  neck  in  2.17^.  The  wonder- 
ful speed  shown  by  Proteine  made  her  the  favorite  at  odds 
against  the  field.  Even  Mace  was  not  confident  at  this 
time  that  he  could  win  with  the  gray.  There  were  twelve 
scores  for  the  second  heat,  Hopeful  principally  being  the 
cause  of  them.  When  the  word  was  given  Nettie  was  be- 
hind. Proteine  and  Great  Eastern  left  their  feet  in  going 
around  the  first  turn,  but  both  quickly  caught.  Hopeful 
was  on  his  good  behavior,  and  the  speed  of  the  whirlwind 
was  in  his  limbs.  He  went  to  the  half  in  1.061,  Proteine 
second.  Great  Eastern  third.  Along  the  back-stretch  Pro- 
teine trotted  a  quarter  in  31|  seconds,  as  timed  by  Mr. 
Baker,  and  she  lapped  Hopeful  at  the  three-quarter  pole. 
Both  she  and  Great  Eastern  left  their  feet  down  the  home- 
stretch. Dan  Mace,  like  the  master  that  he  is,  kept  Hope- 
ful at  work,  and  he  went  under  the  wire  half  a  length  a- 
head  of  Proteine  in  the  wonderful  time  of  2.15|.  The 
cheering  was  tremendous,  and  the  faces  of  Messrs.  Rich- 
mond and  Gillender  were  wreathed  in  smiles.  Hopeful 
was  now  a  great  favorite.  He  got  away  well  in  the  third 
heat,  and  was  never  headed,  going  to  the  half  in  1.07,  to 
the  three-quarter  pole  in  1.41,  and  coming  home  in  2.15i. 
Proteine  finished  three  lengths  behind  him,  Nettie  third. 
Hopeful  could  have  trotted  the  heat  in  2.15,  or  possibly 
2.141 .  Although  Proteine  sufiered  defeat,  it  was  her  priv- 
ilege to  show  her  heels  to  what  was  thought  to  be  the 
most  dangerous  horse  of  the  race — Great  Eastern.  She 
did  not  disappoint  her  friends.  Hopeful  simply  proved 
to  be  a  better  hoi-se  than  the  majority  of  people  had  given 
him  credit  for."  At  Buffalo  he  beat  Great  Eastern,  Net- 
tie and  Cozette  in  three  heats.  Time  2.18^,  2.18,  2.18.  At 
Rochester  he^treated  his  opponents  the  same  way,  win- 
ning in  2.24,   2.20^,   2.20.     At  Utica  he   again   defeated 


296  NOTED  MAINE  HORSES. 

Proteine  and  Great  Eastern  in  2.161,  2.161,  2.17^.  At 
Hartford  he  was  again  victorious  over  Great  Eastern  in 
2.22i,  2.181,  2.20i.  At  the  close  of  the  Grand  Circuit  the 
Spirit  of  the  Times  BY)oke  of  Hopeful  in  the  following 
words,  '"Hopeful  enjoys  the  distinction  of  being  the  only 
horse  that  has  ever  won  every  free-for-all  race  in  one  sea- 
son during  the  Grand  Circuit.  He  is  a  trotter  this  year 
every  inch  of  him."  After  the  close  of  the  Grand  Circuit 
he  was  taken  West  and  entered  in  the  Great  Western  Cir- 
cuit. At  Minneapolis  he  trotted  against  time,  and  won  in 
the  second  trial,  2.171,  2.141,  which  is  his  fastest  record. 
At  St.  Louis  he  trotted  against  liarus'  time,  and  won,  the 
time  being  2.15|,  2.15,  2.15i.  At  Chicago  he  defeated 
Rarus  to  wagon,  Great  Eastern  to  saddle,  in  2.17^,  2.17, 
2.16.  Two  days  after  he  beat  the  best  recorded  time  to 
wagon,  three  seconds,  trotting  it  in  2.16?^,  2.17,  2.17. 
Hopeful  closed  the  season  of  1878  with  the  third  best  rec- 
ord to  harness,  2.141,  and  the  best  record  to  wagon,  2.16^.

KING  WILLIAM,  2.35  (to  wagon). 
(1575). 

About  a  dozen  years  ago  there  was  a  horse  well  known 
in  Maine  as  King  William.  He  was  owned  by  J.  W.  Mc- 
Duffee  of  Lewiston.  Me.,  and  was  perhaps  the  best  adver- 
tised and  the  worst  managed  horse  the  State  ever  pro- 
duced. He  was  by  Hampton,  201,  and  his  dam  was  said 
to  be  by  Witherell.  A  j)ainstaking  friend,  however,  has 
traced  his  pedigree  carefully  and  for  the  truth  of  history 
we  publish  the  result  of  his  researches  here  King  Wil- 
liam was  foaled  in  1866,  and  bred  by  Col.  Golder  of  Phips- 
burg.  Me.  He  was  a  handsome  horse  15|  hands  high,  of 
commanding  appearance,  a  nice  bay  in  color,  and  with 
proper  management  ought  to  have  had  a  record  low  down 
in  the  twenties,  whereas  he  made  himself  and  his  sire  stan- 
dard by  a  single  heat  in  2.35  to  wagon,  in  a  race  over  the 
Lewiston,  Me.,  half-mile  track.  The  first  dam  of  King 
William  was  known  as  the  Stinson  mare,  and  was  got  by 
the  Bliun  horse  of  Dresden,  Me.,  which  horse  was  said  to 
be  a  son  of  Sir  Charles,  by  Sherman  Morgan,  2d  dam  the 
Hinton  mare  by  a  horse  called  Harmony,  breeding  un- 
traced ;  3d  dam  the  Webb  mare  owned  by  Samuel  Reed 
2d,  of  Woolwich,  Me. ;  4th  dam  Cotter  mare  owned  by 
Gould  Hathorn  of  Woolwich;  5th  dam  a  pacer  known  as 
the  Lightning  mare  owned  by  Nathan  Webb  also  of  Wool- 
wich, who  bred  her.  She  was  foaled  about  1810.  King 
AVilliam  became  notorious  if  not  famous, through  his  many 
contests  with  the  black  stallion  Phil  Sheridan,  by  Gen. 
Knox,  in  which  he  was  generally  vanquished  in  slow  time, 
although  he  proved  the  victor  in  at  least  one  race  which 
we  well  remember,  over  the  old  track  at  Mechanic  Falls. 
He  was  at  Boston  one  season,  and  obtained  a  record  of 
2.3I5  at  Mystic  Park,  in  June  1884.  We  started,however, 
to  tell  about  his  famous  tour  as  a  ringer  through  the  West- 
ern and  Middle  State,  to  which  we  are  impelled  by  the 
fact  that  Mr.  Wallace  in  his  Trotting  Register,  and   Ches-

ter,  in  his  Complete  Pacing  and  Trotting  Record;  make 
his  performances  as  those  of  two  distinct  and  seperate 
horses.  In  the  spring  of  1875  King  William  disappeared 
from  Lewiston,  Me.,  and  Ma}-  5th,  at  Washington,  D.  C, 
the  bay  horse  Anglo  Saxon,  entered  by  J.  L.  Mead,  won  a 
purse  of  $500  for  horses  that  had  never  beaten  3.00,  in 
straight  heats,  fastest  2. 41^.  May  7th  he  won  a  purse  of 
$500  for  horses  that  had  never  beaten  2.40,  at  the  same

race  for  a  purse  of  $500  at  the  same  place  after  losing  the 
first  and  second  heats.  Best  record  2.37.  A  relative  of 
the  editor  of  this  work,  who  had  seen  the  horse  in  his 
box  stall  at  Lewiston  for  a  few  moments,  witnessed  some 
of  these  races,  and  while  he  recognized  the  horse  as  one  he 
had  seen  before,  he  failed  to  place  him.  June  18th  at  Par- 
kersburg.  West  Virginia,  J.  L.  Mead's  Anglo  Saxon,  won 
the  2.33  race  for  a  purse  of  $350,  fastest  heat  2.391 .  June

ning a  heat  in  five.  The  race  was  won  by  Lewinski,  fast- 
est time  2.26^.  Early  in  August  King  William  reappeared 
on  his  old  stamping  ground  in  Maine,  and  trotted  several 
races  during  the  fall  under  his  proper  name.  In  the  Fall 
of  1876,  King  William  was  taken  down  into  the  Provinces 
and  died  Sept,,  1883,  at  Bathurst,  Gloucester  Co.,  N.  B.

manner,  which  almost  resulted  in  his  death.  His  throat

MAC,  2.27. 
In  the  good  old  times  when  the  sport  of  trotting  was  in 
its  infancy,  Maine  contributed  her  share  to  the  trotting 
stock  of  the  country.  Fanny  Pullen,  Daniel  D.  Tompkins, 
Tom  Benton,  Zac  Taylor,  Mac,  Lafayette  and  Pelham, 
were  names  as  familiar  to  the  sport  loving  people  of  those 
days,  as  is  that  of  Maud  S.  and  Jay-eye-see,  to  those  of 
the  present.  One  of  the  most  famous  of  the  old  time  trot- 
ters, was  the  subject  of  this  sketch.  Mac  was  a  brown 
gelding  standing  15^  hands  high,  foaled  in  18-13,  the  prop- 
erty of  Thomas  Record,  Canton,  Me.,  who  sold  him  when 
a  weanling  to  Mr.  Thomas    Harlow,   of   the   same   town. 


MAINE  2.30  LIST.  .      307 

Mr.  Harlow  kept  him  a  stallion  until  the  fall  after  he  was 
three  years  old,  during  which  time  he  sired  about  fifteen 
colts.  Mr   Harlow  then  had  him  gelded  and  in  December, 
1846,  sold  him  to  Ambrose  Merrill  of  Hallowell,  for   $95. 
Mr.  Merrill  sold  him  to   Benjamin   Hodges   of  the   same 
place  for  $300,  and  Hodges  to  Oliver  Walton   of  Boston, 
who  sold  him  to  Harry  Jones  of  New   York,   and   he   to 
John  McArdle  of  Albany,    who   named   him   and   owned 
him  all  through   his   trotting  career.     His  contests   with 
sach  horses  as  Flora  Temple,  Lady  Sufiblk,  Lady  Moscow, 
Tacony,  Jack  Rossiter  and  others,  made   him   one   of   the 
most  celebrated  horses  of  his  day.     It  is  not  so   very   long 
ago  that  he  flourished,  his  races  having   been    trotted   be- 
tween the  years  1848  and  1854,  but  so  great  has   been   the 
progress  of  the  trotting  turf  since   then,   that   Mac   fairly 
ranks  among  the  old-time  trotters.     His  sire  was   a  horse 
called  Morgan  Caesar,  but  better  known   in   Maine   under 
the  name  of  Morgan  Post  Boy,  whose  sire  was  Woodbury 
Morgan,  and  whose  dam  was   by   Quicksilver,    while   his 
grandam  was  by  Traveller.  The  dam  of  Mac  was  by  Bush 
Messenger.     The  first  race  in  which   Mac  became   promi- 
nent, was  trotted  Nov.  1st,  1848,  at  Albany,  against  Jenny 
Lind,  the  mare  winning  the  first  and  third  heats,  and  Mac 
taking  the  second  and  fourth  in  2.38,  2.42,   and   after   the 
latter  Jenny  Lind  was  drawn.     A  record  of  2.38  was  fast 
in  those  days,  and  it  was  not  long  before  Mac  was  pitted 
against  the  speediest  horses  of  the  country.     On  the   16th 
of  May,  1849,  we  find  him  in  a  race  against  those  old   fly- 
ers. Lady  Moscow  and  Jack  Rossiter,  tw^o-mile  heats   un- 
der saddle,  which  he  won  taking  the   second   and   fourth 
heats,  the  fastest  in  5.10,  a  rate  of  2.35.     On  the  5th,   6th, 
and  7th  of  June,  1848,  we  find  him  engagedin  three  races, 
at  Providence   with  the  most  noted  flyer  of  her  day,  Lady 
Sufiblk.     In  the  first  of  these   he   was  victorious,   taking 
three  heats  in  2.29^,  2.32,  2.31 ;  but  the  old  gray  mare   de- 
feated him  in  both  the  other  races,  leaving  him  behind  the

flag  each  time,  though  the  time  was  slower  than  he  had 
marked  to. his  own  credit.  He  subsequently  met  Lady 
Suffolk  on  four  different  occasions,  and  beat  her  every 
time,  besides  defeating,  in  her  company,  Gray  Eagle, 
Trouble,  Jack  Rossiter  and  boston  Girl.  In  a  race  with 
Lady  Suffolk  at  Boston,  June  14th,  1849,  he  trotted  a  heat 
in  2.27,  which  he  was  afterwards  able  to  equal,  but  never 
to  surpass.  In  this  race  Lady  Suffolk  trotted  a  heat  in 
2.26,  the  fastest  time  made  at  that  date. 

MADAWASKA  MAID,  2.29i. 

Sorrel  mare  14|  hands  high,  weighs  about  850  pounds, 
with,  I  think,  a  small  star  in  forehead,  and  some  white  on

Collins  of  Presque  Isle,  bought  her  of  the  man  who  raised 
her,  and  finally  sold  her  and  she  was  taken  to  Massachu- 
setts. Oct.  6th,  1868,  at  Boston,  in  a  race  with  Warwick, 
Emperor  and  White  Stockings,  she  won  the  second  heat 
and  a  record  of  2.29^.  She  was  afterwards  taken  to  New 
York,  and  in  1872  was  owned  and  driven  on  the  road  by 
Dr.  Corey  in  double  team  with  Commodore  Nutt.
